Book excerpt: Shah Jo Risalo is a magnum opus of passionate poems, odes and songs, composed by an eighteenth-century polyglot poet, philosopher and musician, Shah Abdul Latif Bhittai. Laïque lyrics seek to illustrate metaphysical precepts with mundane metaphors such as; life and ethos of amorous women, pastoral people, steadfast ascetics, sailors, fishermen and peasants. English interpretation of the Risalo seeks to focus on philosophical themes while retaining the poetic flair of the verses that echo spiritual voyage through pastures, prairies, hills and harbours of the Indus valley.
